Reggie Wayne's stock rising

Robert Mathis and Reggie Wayne. The two stars are headed toward free agency and who knows whether the front office of a reworked roster will choose to spend the money necessary for the two veterans.

The two sent a hint a year ago that they sought reworked contracts. Neither got one and neither has publicly complained since. Mathis’ motor has not slowed even though other issues have limited the number of times the defense has played with a lead.

Wayne doesn’t have the receptions or yardage he usually compiles because of a lack of Manning. But he’s been a quiet leader through tough times and has shown he still has the same flair for making great catches.

Even with some nice individual performances, bidding farewell to this season can’t come soon enough.
